I've been building an Eleanor for the last 4 years and when it's been that long you can just look at a car and know who's kit is on it. My kit is MTF too, except for the rockers and hood.

Do you have any particular color in mind?

I'm going for the Metallic Pepper Gray, but for the center strips, we are doing a dark Metallic Charcoal Gray, with two strips, on one each side of the hood with a 4" gap. Then a 1" space, with a 1/4 pin strip all the way down the car. Pretty excited about the car! What about yours?!?

I went with the Pepper Gray as well, with black stripes. Looking forward to watching your build.

alright, I need some advice. My body guy, thinks that it will look better if we molded the end-caps to the rear tail-light panel including the fiberglass bumper. I don't know.... He thinks it will look better, and it'll be one piece and you won't see the seam. He's pretty good with fiberglass.

What do you guys think??

NoReigns is the expert I think on the Eleanor build on this site at this point. Everything you can think of asking is well documented in her thread.

Welcome to the site and you will find a lot of friendly, knowledgeable people here to ask questions. When you get a day, like was mentioned, you should read NoReigns build thread.
